In the hearts of Axiu and Ye Chen, the things Yu Guang did were not shown to outsiders, which meant that Yu Guang did not want outsiders to know what she had done to Ye Chen.
If it is as they suspected, Yu Guang will let them out sooner or later.
But now, Yu Guang actually asked someone to seal the house, and the people below did so without any hesitation.
This shows that Yu Guang has completely controlled the palace and does not intend to leave any way for them to survive.
As the room became darker and darker, they became more and more panicked.
The intense panic caused Axiu and Ye Chen to struggle together again.
The craftsmen worked very quickly, leaving only a small hole two feet square in the room.
The two people in the room finally separated, staring blankly at the ray of light shining into the room from the small hole.
Now, that is the last bit of light in the house.
At this moment, a slightly shrill male voice suddenly came from the entrance of the cave: "Empress Li, Empress Li."
When she heard someone calling her name, Axiu cheered up as if waking up from a dream: "Who is it? Who is calling me."
The little eunuch standing outside the "window" curled his lips, but his voice was still respectful: "Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen has ordered that His Majesty's faults should not be exposed to light, so he specially made the house airtight.
From now on, there will be someone waiting here every morning, noon and evening. Your and His Majesty's dirty clothes, sheets, buckets and other sundries can be sent out from here. If you need anything, just say hello."
Her Royal Highness the Queen said that since the Emperor had given her the dignity of a Queen and served her well, no one would neglect her.
So now she will naturally reciprocate the favor and show enough respect to His Majesty and Concubine Li.
His Highness truly repaid his kindness, and all the slaves like him were moved.
Hearing this, Axiu's lips moved slightly: Are they under house arrest?
But Ye Chen quickly grasped the key point: "She is just a queen, how do you call her Your Highness?"
This is a title only given to princes and princesses of authentic royal blood.
The little eunuch obviously didn't expect that Ye Chen would be so involved in this kind of thing and still care about such trivial matters. He immediately replied softly: "To answer your Majesty, I don't know why. It's just that the palace just standardized the title, minion."
Just do it."
Of course that's not the case, it's just that General Manager Shunyi calls the Queen this way now, and of course they, the younger ones, have to learn from it.
Ye Chen's chest heaved violently: "Bitch."
Feeling that what he said after that would cause trouble, the little eunuch quickly interrupted Ye Chen: "Ms. Libi, Her Highness the Queen has sent a servant to deliver something to you and Your Majesty. Could you please come and pick it up."
With her bloody head on her head, Axiu stumbled to the window, only to see a heavy package and a huge wooden barrel coming in from outside.
Axiu had never done any heavy work when she was young, and she had been pampered these past few years, so she was almost knocked off her feet by these things.
After finally regaining his balance, the young eunuch's shrill voice came from outside: "Ms. Libi, there are candles and tung oil in this. You and your majesty must be careful when using it and don't let the water leak out.
Her Royal Highness the Queen said that taking care of His Majesty will be left to you from now on. After all, you are a maid, so you are naturally comfortable doing this kind of thing."
Hearing this, Axiu's voice suddenly rose: "How can I be so handy? I was also taken care of by someone back then."
She is the young lady's caring maid, and she is trained according to her confidants. The Yu family is a big family, and there are seven or eight little girls surrounding her on weekdays. She just does the work of combing her hair, checking accounts, and inquiring about information.
Why did she become a maid serving others!
The little eunuch secretly sighed: "Empress Li is very lucky, but now this room is sealed and people from outside can't get in, so I have to worry about Empress Li."
I heard that Empress Li was originally the personal maid of Her Majesty the Queen. I didn’t expect His Highness to be so lenient to Empress Li. No wonder it made people’s hearts grow!
Seeing that Axiu had put away the candles and tung oil, the little eunuch raised his voice slightly: "Ms. Libi, please step back, I have other things to send in."
A Xiu was about to ask what it was when the sound of liquid falling to the ground was heard.
A Xiu hurriedly retreated, but was still splashed by the liquid.
Axiu wiped her face and used the light to look at the "liquid" with a metallic luster on the ground. Then her pupils suddenly shrank: it turned out to be mercury.
The voice of the little eunuch sounded in time: "Your Highness is worried that the Empress Libi has become accustomed to the company of mercury and will not adapt to the days without mercury, so she specifically asked the servant to send a basin of mercury every ten days to prevent the empress from missing her too much."
Axiu stared blankly at the mercury rolling on the ground, suddenly let out a scream, and then threw herself onto the bed like a madman, trying her best to keep herself away from the mercury.
Change the pot every ten days. The lady wants to kill her!
One day later, Liu Qinglian finally woke up, only to find that her eyes were gray.
It was as if someone had covered her eyes with a piece of silk. She could feel that it was daytime but could not see anything.
Liu Qinglian wanted to speak, but as soon as she moved her mouth, her face started to hurt.
In desperation, she could only open her mouth slightly and whine: She is so thirsty, please come and give her some water.
Those who accompanied you ladies in the mourning hall were basically their close confidants.
Now they have been picked up by Yu Guang.
Knowing that Yu Guang is the only master in the palace now, everyone is swarming to squeeze into Yu Guang Palace.
Those who couldn't squeeze in came up with Liu Kejun's idea.
Unfortunately, Liu Kejun seemed to be frightened out of her wits. She only ordered the kitchen to move the ingredients into her yard. Except for delivering snacks to the Queen, she did not leave the palace at all.
On the contrary, all the palace people couldn't even find a way to please him.
His Majesty is now under house arrest, and palace affairs are left to the cabinet.
Except for a few people who received errands in front of the queen, the rest of the palace people were in panic and had no intention of serving the master who was obviously not welcome.
Liu Qinglian called for a long time, and the little palace maid who was napping on the soft couch woke up when no one was there: "The Imperial Concubine, you are awake."
Hiss, no matter how many times you look at this face, it still feels scary.
Thanks to Yu Guang, the lime and water from yesterday's furnace had an effect on Liu Qinglian's face. When the lime met the water, it generated a lot of heat, and Liu Qinglian's face was burned into blisters.
The imperial doctor came to see her yesterday and said that Liu Qinglian's eyes were also burned out. Even if she gets better in the future, it will be difficult to see clearly.
As for that charming face, it is completely ruined. Not only will there be scars, but the skin color on the face will also be different shades.
The only good news left by the imperial doctor was that Liu Qinglian's eyes were damaged and it was impossible to see how ugly she would become.
